Mexico's OFFICIAL Personal Savings rate is 17%, compared to our 15%--but they don't
have all the HUGE debts which we have, which means their savings go in their pockets while
ours are spent by morons like Klintoon http://fathersmanifesto.net/bottomline.htm Personal
Savings objectives establish which country is the best long term economic strategist,
which means it ain't us.

Second, our per capita exports are only 69% greater than Mexico's ($2,651 vs. $1,548
per capita), BUT this is far offset by the fact that our exports are putting us into DEBT,
as evidenced by the fact that our NEGATIVE current account balance is almost 9 times
bigger than Mexico's ($1,337 vs $151 per capita).

Third, this means that our foreign debt per capita, which is ALREADY almost twice as
high as Mexico's ($2,964 vs. $1,687 per capita) will spiral OUT OF CONTROL very, very
soon--if it is not already out of control.

While we spend almost 11% of our GDP on "health care", Mexico spends less
than 1%, yet Mexico's life expectancy is only 3 years shorter than ours (74 vs. 77 years),
which means that they have another 10% of GDP which can be (and probably is) dedicated to
the growth side of their economy. This is a MAJOR economic advantage over our current
economic model.

Without any "help" from us, Mexico will be eating our lunch on their own
pretty soon--not because of fantastic growth in Mexico, but because of STUPIDITY in the
US, similar to what got us in the business of giving reparations to all kinds of
non-victims like "holocaust survivors".

Foreign Debt. n.a., ± not available.These figures are the latest available from national and multilateral sources
(telephone data from Intl. Telecom. Union). These statistics will appear only
occasionally: GDP (PPP), savings, foreign debt, literacy rate, urban population, people
per doctor, infant mortality, people per TV and calorie intake. Gross domestic product
(GDP) is the value of all goods and services produced in one year. Purchasing Power Parity
(PPP, based on World Bank ratios) takes into account price differences between countries,
for a more accurate measure of national wealth. Gross National Product (GNP) is GDP plus
payments from abroad from investments and labor, minus similar payments to foreigners.
